Hi! I’m a rising senior from Alabama. I’m looking at colleges to apply for come fall. I want to major in forensic/criminal psychology but there are only a few universities that have that specific major. Could I do a double major in psych and criminology to get an equal chance compared to someone who has a forensic psych degree? I just don’t want to be restricted when applying. Thank you in advance!

I'm interested in the same type of major and have not found many schools with a forensic psychology major besides Florida Institute of Technology. I think I'm going to combine double major in Neuroscience and Psychology and minor in either forensics or criminology if I can't find a school with forensic psychology.
